Originally posted by superdave: I am going to have to bow out early. I haven't posted the last few days because i was out hiking and slid 20 feet down the side of a mountain. I ended up with a wrist fracture and 47 stitches in my arm. I'm going to have a cast on for the next 8 to 12 weeks. Luckily, i had just put the camera down before falling, but unfortunately my backpack with the 50mm took a tumble too. Good thing the 50mm is inexpensive to replace. Its horrible because I just ordered the Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM Macro and now its going to have to sit for awhile. Time to catch up on comments with all these amazing images. |

Sorry to hear about your fall! That must have been some gash to take 47 stitiches! Hope you have a speedy recovery without any complications. Take care!

OK, so it's mostly a landscape but there are flowers in it! Just felt like doing something different after all those flower macros. :) |

1. Dupe BG layer, use "image/apply image" in soft light mode
2. Dupe that layer, use "filters/other/high pass" at 1.8 pixels, set layer to "overlay", merge down
3. Dupe layer again, use shadow/highlight at a fairly low value.
See how the luminance and details both have now popped?

These are the same shot. I was playing with curves and it became an abstract. |
